CD sleeves are one of the areas of design that first caught the attention of the picto-brain. In this section you find some re-imagined album covers by favourite bands and designers. They have been approached from the point of view of being the first to design them (whilst trying to forget what the current artwork is), using the music and song titles as direction for the aesthetics. Once a concept has been chosen, the cover is designed in the time it takes to listen to the album – nothing like a creative challenge!

The first in this project is Boards of Canada’s now legendary album ‘Music has the right to children’, released in 1998 on Warp records. A particular pictographik favourite. Enjoy.
